Relaxing week!

We had a very relaxing week at this condo. It is beautiful and very clean. The wrap around porch gives a great view of the water. The sunsets were spectacular. Enjoyed listening to the waves at night and watching the oyster boats in the morning. Did a day trip to Chincoteaque, Va. Had a great meal at Watermans.

We used this condo for a family weekend. We picked it as our parents are older and the elevator was key to access since they aren't very mobile. My dad loved the views from the wrap around balcony. My mom loved the layout of the unit. The condo was spotlessly clean, well appointed to be calming and to not detract from the view. The owners were so accommodating, answering all our questions. We will definitely return.

Off Season Retreat

Review Submitted: 01/31/12
While I'm sure this rental is wonderful 'in season', there's much to be said for it 'off season'! Beautifully furnished, great location, fantastic views from the wrap around deck, and the most wonderful QUIET! No 'city noise', no traffic, just an occasional sea bird or work boat passing by. Great restaurant within walking distance (Thurs - Sun) and a great kitchen for 'eat-in' meals as well. If you like oysters, buy them near by - can't get any fresher! The owner is easy to talk with, always available for questions & help if needed. And once again, ... the most fantastic views of water and sunsets you'll ever see!!

Work related activities required a weeklong stay in the Crisfield area, so the wife and I combined work with pleasure and rented this corner condo. The owner was very helpful and worked with me to arrange our stay and payment options on short notice. The property is like new. If anything, the pictures do not do it justice. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. A trip to Tangier Island was arranged during this off season, and it was a good time to see and appreciate the island culture. King’s restaurant is an exceptional value, and Waterman’s restaurant provides a quality dining experience. Don’t miss the flounder sandwich at Linton’s located a few miles out of town on Hwy 413. A well equipped kitchen allowed us to eat in on occasion too. The views of a working port, complete with crab boat traffic, make for interesting Bay watching during the day. Overall, we had a very productive and enjoyable stay; the perfect mix of work and play.

We were running away from an empty nest for Christmas this year, and stayed three days in this beautiful condo. It was so peaceful and restful, the condo is beautifully decorated, and we were graced with beautiful sunset each night. This could easily become our new Christmas tradition, even once our birdie flies home for the holiday! We hope to come sometime in the summer so we can visit Tangier and Smith Island.

We rented this condo to house out of town friends and family visiting us in Crisfield the weekend prior to Christmas. The condo was beautifully furnished, spotless and had every amenity that our guests would need. All were delighted with the spacious accomodations and of course the spectacular views. The rental experience was great with the owner responding promptly in helping us with our arrangements and answering questions.

Perfect weekend for my daughter's wedding and a perfect place to prepare and relax and recoup after the event. Relatives from Massachusetts thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful views as well as the clean, comfortable rooms and amenities. The Ice Cream Shop was a big hit as well as the comings and goings along the dock. We hope to be back soon. Couldn't be more pleased.

If your looking for a view this is the condo to rent. You can sit on the balcony and enjoy the sunrise/sunsets, waterfowl, boats and locals fishing on pier. Condo is nicely outfitted and the owner is quick to respond and service. I would return when the need arises to have a relaxing vacation with a view. Thanks for sharing your rental with us.

My family of 4 adults and 2 children found this clean, nicely appointed condo perfect for long weekend in Crisfield. Particularly impressive was the expansive view of the harbor and the river with Janes Island and Tangier Sound in the background. I recommend this unit without reservation. While in Crisfield we especially enjoyed eating at Capt. Tyler's Crab House within walking distance of the condo. Breakfast at the Waterman's Inn is not to be missed either.

Family holiday rental

Review Submitted: 08/16/11
Condo is exactly as described. It has panoramic views of the bay, lots of boats to watch, beautiful sunsets, peaceful mornings, fascinating wildlife. Accommodation is very confortable and spacious, it was spotlessly clean and very well-maintained. A small ironing board would have been useful to get hte worse creases out, but no one really wants to iron on holiday so a very minor criticism indeed! We travelled with 2 children ages 15 and 12 who had a great time crabbing and exploring the local parks as well as the Atlantic coast. I would recommend this property to friends, but would note that the closest (and very beautiful) beaches are about an hour away by car. Jim White was very prompt and professional in dealing with our booking. We would recommend the Waterman's Inn for food and the Ice Cream Gallery too. The staff at Kings Italian restaurant were delightful too. A great vacation rental and a lovely introduction to Maryland for this family from the UK who have previously only visited Florida!

My in-laws stayed in your condo over the weekend for our daughter's wedding. Your unit is positively gorgeous!! The views from every window were unbelievable. My brother-in-law took some awesome pictures from the balcony. Being in Crisfield made things a lot easier for my mother-in-law and when the heat got too much for her she was quickly able to return to the air conditioning and the view. Thanks so much for a wonderful weekend!!

We are so thankful that it worked out for us to be able to stay in this condo again. This was our second time to stay here while visiting family. With our youngest daughter having her wedding in Crisfield this worked out perfectly for us to come back and have a great place to stay. The only thing we didn't like about it this time was the days went by to fast! But who knows maybe we'll be back again.

This is the best place to stay by far! Jim was professional, friendly and made the VRBO experience what it should be! This condo has the best water view on the corner and LOTS of room! Very large rooms and decorated for beauty and comfort! Well equipped kitchen and comfortable beds! We enjoyed watching the osprey and loon! Boats coming and going with crab pots and walking distance to shops, ice cream story 1/2 block away, restaurants and tour boats to Smith Island and Tangier Island. Locals friendly and very willling to help. One young fireman even had us follow him to the Ward Brothers Workshop as he didn't want us to get lost. We went to the must see in April the Ward Wildfowl World Woodcarving Competition at Ocean City (abt. one hour away), explored Crisfield and the Ward Brothers Workshop, Historical Berlin where Runaway Bride and Tuck's Everlasting were filmed (ate at the Hotel Atlantic GREAT food and crab dip), Ward Brothers Museum in Salisbury and had great ice cream and Smith Island cake at the ice cream shop 1/2 block from condo Enjoyed talking with locals in the stores and the guys even helped a captain and his wife load their boat with a dryer they were taking home to Smith Island. Didn't get to Smith Island and Tangier but enjoyed watching supply boats load everything from food and supplies and watched the mail boat and tourist boat come in and out! VERY quiet condo and private location. Sorry to have to leave after 3 days! BUT Cousin Arliss will come back with sisters yearly get together! The best of the best! Your crazy if you don't take advantage of this offer!

Some people travel for the night life, some for the tourist sights....for me, it's all about the view! And what a view this condo has! Wrap around water, on two sides of the condo, as far as the eye can see! It's almost like being on a ship! We just spent three nights in this beautifully decorated condo, and it lacked for nothing. It has all the comforts of home, plus floor to ceiling glass on every available inch, and a deck that wraps around two sides of the condo. Who needs anything else? Jim was the perfect host, in touch and on the ball for questions and answers. The condo was immaculate and had everything you could ever want. (We were especially appreciative of the wonderful bedding.) If you're looking for a quiet get away in a luxurious setting, treat yourself to some time here.

If your idea of a great vacation is a peaceful pace in beautiful surroundings, then this unit fills the bill. We traveled with a small group of friends and all had a thoroughly enjoyable time. The large kitchen and dining room table make it easy to "eat in," even with a group. This waterfront unit is spacious, clean, tastefully furnished, with gorgeous water views. Add to that stunning sunsets and it's hard to beat. The owners are helpful and easy to work with. The sleepy little town is filled with friendly, unpretentious people. A couple of good restaurants operate year-round, with more open during the summer months. A rather new Food Lion is a great place to pick up groceries. Can't wait to return in warmer weather and hop a boat for a day on Smith Island or Tangier Island. Or bring a kayak and paddle around Janes Island State Park. Or just put up your feet with a good book and RELAX!

My wife, two grandchildren and I spent 3 nights in January in this condo. Although the weather was cold and there was much ice in the harbor the views were fantastic and the condo was warm and snug. The condo and entire facility was very clean and well maintained; one of the best of many we have stayed in. The owner was very accommodating and helpful in arrainging a last-minute rental. Since my wife and I are former Crisfielders we are well aquanted with the area, and recommend both the Cove and Watermans Inn for dining. The Harbor Lights and this unit in particular are 5 star in my book.

Our stay at the condo was so relaxing! Very enjoyable and private with the wrap around balcony! Very open and sunny.The view was awesome! Wish we had thought to bring our binoculars to check out the wildlife a little closer. Enjoyed watching the boats coming in and going out each day. Very peaceful and quite. Would definitely come back and stay in the condo again. Great price for all you get! And the location is not bad if you want to go a couple of hours out for a day to Hershey, PA, or into DC. We got to do alot in a short amount of time. We loved it! Thank you!

Our week's stay in your beautiful condo was a true pleasure and very restful experience. The condo was very clean and had all the necessary equipment to live in complete comfort. The kitchen was absolutely perfect for cooking meal and or preparing a light lunch The furnishings and beds were excellent for relaxing and sleeping. The bathrooms are designed with the best of everything - spacious and inviting. The view is SPECTACULAR, and the sunset and early morning almost beyond description -- breath-taking to say the least. Arriving was exciting, and leaving was sad. We had a wonderful vacation experience in your great condo. We would recommend this property to anyone -- in fact have already spoken with our son about.

The photo's do not do it justice - beautiful condo - so much light! Fantastic wrap around terrace, perfect for morning coffee & watching the sunset. Tastefully decorated, clean & comfortable. The only thing I missed was a corkscrew for my wine, which a friendly neighbor gladly lent. The locals are all very friendly & love to converse. Try the tiki bar for great crab cakes & drinks. The restaurant adjacent- great for all u can eat crabs. Take a day trip to Snow Hill for canoe or kayaking: http://www.atbeach.com/amuse/md/canoe/index.asp Great place for crab lovers, quiet seekers, boating.

The condo is beautiful! It is an end unit with a big deck , the view from any where in the living room /dinning area is fabulous! All you see is the bay with boats going by and what great sun sets. The condo is very comfortable, lots of room and clean. We recommend the "Watermen's Inn" for dinner, we went there twice. Also if looking to go for a day trip, Tangier Island cruise is good. We went to both Tangier Island and Smith Island, save your money and don't go to Smith Island. Great place for a little R&R!

We stayed at this condo the week of July 26th. The property is exactly like the pictures and the views and sunsets are even more spectacular thanks to the extremely large wrap around deck.The Marina is very nice and you can crab or fish off multiple docks. Trips to tangier and Smith Islands leave from within walking distance of the condo.Make sure you stop at the back door of MeTomkins on Mondays or Fridays before 3:00PM and pick up fresh jumbo lump crab ($18 per lb and worth every penny). The Tiki bar whcih is two blocks away has specials on Wednesday and Thuursdays. There is also a good Mexican/Tex Mex style restaurant about 6 blocks from the unit. We will definitely look at returning to this condo again.

Two generations were in our party, and every one of us were extremely happy with everything concerning the home, the furnishings, the location and every aspect of our stay. Our whole experience was much more than we ever anticipated. All the pictures in the world cannot do justice to this lovely home.The furniture is VERY comfortable, and the beds are absolutely heavenly. We all had the best sleep we've ever had. The owners thought of everything to make your stay comfortable and pleasant. It is well equipped with just about anything one could want. It is beautiful and peaceful. The older people were perfectly happy to stay home and enjoy the scenery from the deck, read, relax, watch movies, etc. There's plenty to do for any age. The pool is lovely; you can fish and crab right off the deck below your feet, but there are other locations where you can do the same; kayaking, canoing, etc., are activities to be enjoyed; head boat fishing is available; Smith Island and/or Tangier Island are just a short boat trip away; there's a wonderful State Park nearby; Chincoteague, Assateague, Ocean City, Pocomoke City and all kinds of wonderful places are not far away. There are some wonderful restaurants in town, and the seafood is plentiful. The Food Lion is brand new and very well equipped. Fresh produce is abundant. The house was absolutely spotless. Our stay was so delightful, we had made up our minds before we even left that we would return and even set the date. We didn't even accept our Security Deposit, but asked the owners to apply it to reserve our next stay. We are convinced the location is the best in the whole complex. People visited us who had stayed in another building earlier and were completely taken back by the perfect location of this condo unit. It is so much more than any pictures or write up could depict. It thoroughly exceeded our expectations. What a treasure!

My family and I, which consisted of five had a most enjoyable and relaxing weekend stay at Relaxed Living Condo. It is a beauty, very comfortable with all the comforts of home, and a good view of the waterfront. The weekend stay was great, but really a week would be so much better. We had such a great time that we really hated to depart. So if you are looking for a place to vacate or a weekend get away, give the owner a call. Very nice folks.

I would highly recommend this unit to everyone who may want to get away for a long weekend or a week long visit. The outside decks are very large and surround the unit on two sides and give you ample space to sit outside. There is also a screened in porch that could be used.
